New Grower Savage6970's 1st grow and a seed run to boot

[savage6970]

This thread is under construction. Currently under the lights are 2 Auto AK47's(GOM) at about 33 days from seed. 1 is very healthy, and one has suffered a nute lock out due to ph problems. I believe I have this under control now as my little runt continues to grow and throw out pistils even though she is only 6 inches tall. She will be the subject of the seed run I mentioned in post title. Also under the bulbs are 3 Afghan Kush Ryders(WOS) and 1 Green-O-Matic(GHS).

Here's pics of all the gals(hopefully)as they sit now. Will try to get a full post up with what pics I have from day 1 of all their growths.

Please bear with me as I can be windy and like to bullshit as mentioned in my intro.
Any input is welcome and appreciated bad or good. I've always learned from my mistakes in life so I feel I'm already ahead of the curve as 1 month in I've already made a few

Currently under a 24/7 light regimen using OF soil and Maxibloom for nutes. Here's the pics and will put together the whole story asap.

1st pic is a group shot, 2nd is a shot of the babies(13 days old), 3rd is of my mutant and future seed bearer(plan on calling the cross Short Bus as she's kind of slow and has been dropped on her head. More on that later.)and 4th is the start of my main cola on my big girl. Wish me luck guy's

Welcome to AFN and the New Growers forum.

I would advise again breeding to the runt. Runts are undesirable and by breeding to her you will be passing those runt genetics on to your new seeds. You would be better served to just pollinate a branch on your larger plant. One branch can easily produce 40-60 seeds while the rest of the plant produces seed free buds.

Also, be cautious as OF soil can be too hot and will sometimes cause problems by stunting seedlings. Next grow I would suggest you start in some Happy Frog and move to the OF once the plants are established. Also, OF with it high nutrient content should be enough to supply the plants needs for the first 3-4 weeks, so no additional nutrients may be needed till after that time.

Muddy TYVM for the prompt reply. Sorry I did not provide the same. I have been very busy with work and life, and have not been able to get to this post till now. So here we go.....
I hear what your saying Muddy as far as passing on bad genes. I never felt that this plant was a mutant in any way. Was pretty sure the OF was to hot or my water was to blame. In my heart I felt the genetics of the plant ran true. I transplanted it from its 1 gal pot to a solo cup where it finally took off.
I went ahead and pollinated it as planned though my pollen sample was marginal at best. I also attempted to pollinate a flower on the healthy plant.
My goal is not to replicate the runt/dwarf/micro pheno whatever you want to call it,but rather to retain some of the traits of these beans as I feel their quite worthy. That's all. Just sayin.....

And wow this forum is blowing up!!! I could only wish for this much activity in my days moderating a poker forum. Many props admins and mods :thumbs:

above is the "short bus" think she has maxxed out the solo cup I replanted her in, but too late to put her back in anything bigger. She has served her purpose as intended.

short Bus is preggo
pretty sure her sister is too

Plan on a side by side seed run to see what characteristics are shared. If the stunted pheno shows again will abandon project and destroy seed stock.

AK47 #1 in all her glory(day 48)

I have pics of the grow in between these stages for anyone growing the same strain if they want some comparison shots. Otherwise will post an update when I get a chance.

Think there will be something to be thankful for at the savage residence come turkey day.

* There is lots of debate about whether WOS AKR is autoflowering or not. All 3 of my GIRLS showed sex between days 20 and 22 I'm happy with them even if I do have to change the light schedule to get them to flower. We shall see. To be continued.......

Some real great pics bud Hazy

Autos are still relatively new and not yet 100% stable, so runt phenos are still fairly common. While it could have been stunted from environmental factors, there's always the possibility that it's genetic. Just wanted to make you aware.

Your plants are looking nice, keep up the good work.

Hey y'all just checking in. Tried a different camera but still pretty crappy pics. The girls are going great guns. Had to re-pot one of the AKR's and the Grass-O-Matic as they were needing more root space, otherwise all seems to be well.

Day 50 autoAK for both Short Bus and her big sister.

hello ladies.

 

[savage6970]

Quick update while I have the time. Transplanted the 2 small AKR into their final home. Was going to leave them in the small pots as I fear my cab will not hold these once they fill out. Decided to let them stretch their legs and will expand cab if necessary.

Where did everybody go?

Oh their in the chow line. Left to right the 3 Afghan Kush Ryders(WOS), the Green-O-Matic(GHS), and the 2 auto AK47's(GOM)

And a quick shot of my big girl. Short Bus is doing great and will produce 10-20 seeds, can't really tell on the big girl as she is very busy. Hope to find a few intermingled in her sweet buds.

Sorry about pic quality. Will obtain a better camera before she finishes up.

Oh yeah all the little ones are at 31 days and the Ak47's are at 53ish

This girl looks like some dank savage, good growing :thumbs: I'll be following your thread, good luck with the seed project :smokebuds:
